You are starving. You patiently waited more than a half-hour for your food delivery. You practically drool when you open that Styrofoam lid.

But when you take a bite, something tastes ... off. What would you do?

Well, nearly 9 percent of you who took our poll would keep on eating.

Another 9 percent would throw that food away. The bulk of voters would report the suspect food to the restaurant or to authorities.

Good luck to you select few, you iron-stomached 9 percent.
